SSR Lovers and/or Owners Thread!

Welllll, I almost had to bail on my SSR contract. AKL is our favorite place in the whole wide world, next to home. If DH likes it, that is SERIOUS. I always said if AKV ever came around, THEN and only then, would I consider DVC. Santa had different plans and gave us 100 SSR for Christmas. When they announced AKV, hubby decided we should sell SSR, only problem is, since Santa made The Santa Clause movie franchise, he's a Disney CM now and gets the discount, so selling the contract gets a bit dicey. Once we found out that we wouldn't qualify as "founding members" anyway, since oldest 2 DDs are CMs (we miss out on some GOOD stuff b/c of that...but I guess we get some good stuff, too!), DH scrapped the sale of the SSR points and decided we should just add on 100 (to get the incentive pricing). I've never even stayed at SSR and was starting to get depressed about selling our points!

22 days to our first (and not last!) SSR visit!

AWWW. You will love SSR and so will he. You guys will probably end up adding on since Addonitis is almost guaranteed to strike all DVC members at one time or another. Then you will have even more points. You guys maybe can do a split stay. AKV will have more than enough rooms to accomodate at the 7mos window. We just added on for the love not really out of neccesity.

You won't be disappointed with both of your purchases!! We now own at both and are looking forward to spending time at each resort.

Its not much warmer here in Maryland! We are so looking forward to our upcoming trips in the warm Floriday sun!

Tell me about it. I'm in MD too. My car refused to start yesterday. And here I am huddled up next to a heater dreaming of warmer days in Saratoga. (Yes, I nearly froze myself with ice cream talk. Sorry 'bout that.)

I remember being there last April/May. It was boiling hot the day we left. My poor little skin went beat red. I had so many layers of sunscreen on I was like a greasy fish. Just 3 more months to go and I am so there.

Now, now, there's nothing wrong with sharing your love. We all have big hearts. But I think you'll find you enjoy both types of vacations.

SSR will give you that touch of adult nightlife and easy downtime, while AKV gives you the exotic feel.

I'm planning a split trip next year: 3 days at AKV and 9 at SSR. I'm really into the spirit of adventure, I'll try to do a few days at BWV or BCV.

I am an SSR owner and hope to soon be an SSR Lover. We will be going home for our first trip to SSR March 3rd. I can't wait. It is so nice to see all of the great pictures and to read lots of nice comments.

Oops, it is. I was half right. I got the initials correct.

It's Congress Park. The Carousel is on the opposite side of the resort by the main entrance. Two buildings there.

For maps, well here's one:

Just did an add on at SSR during the F&F promo. We've never stayed there but can't wait to give it a try. Now if I can just get some nice "neighbor" to cancel their trip during Spring Break I can get in for a few days...any takers?

We purchased 220 points at SSR last month after going on the tour in December, looking forward to our first trip home in July.

I wish I had made ressies. Anything to get out of this frigid cold. Went outside today just to run an errand. My nose froze from car to door. Brrrrrr!

Ok, even I have to admit you need the Florida heat more than I do. Atlanta was near 60 degrees yesterday...guess you guys are getting our winter also!
